    One thing is for sure the browns are on the cusp of a great beginning. The a new oc and a gm that can find the diamonds in the draft. A few big pieces remain.  For instance the line there are holes they need filled and we have thenpicks to do it with the first two picks give me Mike McGlinchey and Orlando Brown bring over Kirk and bring back prior I believe that’s a top ten offense.  Spend the rest of the picks on d.  Boom start the Winning.  

    I am sure using the first 2 picks of the draft on the O line will go down great on here 🙂

        We already have a solid o-line. Highest paid in the league I believe. We need a competent QB and playmakers

              Oh yes elite is well.....elite, nobody is getting rid of those QBs and 7.0 and 6.0 guys in this draft are far from elite, franchise, whatever.

              Anyone who can even play quarterback in the NFL now has some great job security.

                    The BROWNS have 12 well placed picks to fill a lot of needs but still need to not blow the rare #1 and 4 picks. I don't remember a more interesting off season in quite a while. 🙂

                    We all have our wish lists.

                        Problem is that the Browns have had success drafting OL....Thomas, Mack, Bito, Faine...etc.   Only real miss was Erving.  Same cannot be said for the skill players....all pretty much Busta Rhymes.   Quinn, Manziel, Weeden.   TR/William Green RB.   Braylon, Coleman WR.   K2 TE  (some of these guys had maybe 1-2 productive seasons and that is it.

                          Certainly true in the top three rounds or so. Before Cam you have to go back to Fowler in '02 or Ed King in '91 to find a hint of a miss in rounds 1 thru 3.

                          However, the other side of the coin is equally true, i.e., we haven't unearthed a quality, OL starter in Rnd 4 or later since.... Winters in '87? You'd think at "a dime a dozen" we would have had more late-round success than that. 😉

                              Now highest on the dime list maybe RBs, some LBs maybe long snappers or TEs?

                                It would take a fair amount of work, but it'd be interesting to examine the league-wide bust and "dime" percentages for each position.

                                    Certainly true in the top three rounds or so. Before Cam you have to go back to Fowler in '02 or Ed King in '91 to find a hint of a miss in rounds 1 thru 3.

                                    However, the other side of the coin is equally true, i.e., we haven't unearthed a quality, OL starter in Rnd 4 or later since.... Winters in '87? You'd think at "a dime a dozen" we would have had more late-round success than that. 😉

                                    "A dime a dozen" maybe correct about lawyers, ever seen the yellow pages? 😆 JUST KIDDING GIP.   But for a good starting OL that's going to be there for 10 years to get some continuity with his line-mates I'd take a 1st or 2nd round shot at an OL, especially if you've two.

                                    Now highest on the dime list maybe RBs, some LBs maybe long snappers or TEs?

                                    There are certainly more than enough lawyers around....you don't have to tell me.  It is partially why I am on the verge of partial retirement.

                                        One thing is for sure the browns are on the cusp of a great beginning. The a new oc and a gm that can find the diamonds in the draft. A few big pieces remain.  For instance the line there are holes they need filled and we have thenpicks to do it with the first two picks give me Mike McGlinchey and Orlando Brown bring over Kirk and bring back prior I believe that’s a top ten offense.  Spend the rest of the picks on d.  Boom start the Winning.  

                                        I am sure using the first 2 picks of the draft on the O line will go down great on here 🙂

                                        It would  have a positive effect on the board. Ghoolie's head would explode, and we wouldn't have to deal with him anymore....

                                          Let's win now imploded when Alex Smith went to the freaking Redskins. And don't say anything about Kirk Cousins...he's not coming here. (fun fact! Only a few years ago we could've gotten Cousins for a 2nd round pick but we said no).
